In the past, Brent worked as a money manager for banks and larger firms before becoming a gold fund manager.
During this 30+ minute, Jason asks Brent about his views on the global macro situation. Brent expects things to get a lot worse but for the demand for US Dollars to keep increasing. According to Brent’s estimates there’s about $11 trillion dollars in dollar denominated debt outstanding globally and almost $2 trillion dollars of it is coming due in the next 12 months.
Jason also asks Brent about the Chinese bank failures that have gone public in the last 3 or so weeks, China’s economy, if emerging markets will get emergency liquidity from the Fed and also gold and gold mining.
